If you believe you were the victim of medical negligence, the best thing you can do is consult medical malpractice attorney. Once you have reason to believe you were the victim of malpractice, the statute of limitations has started, and you have two years to file. If you were under 18 years old when the medical malpractice happened, then you have total of eight years and up to your 22nd birthday to file lawsuit. If you are under legal disability at the time of the malpractice, like being deemed mentally incompetent, then the statute of limitations doesn’t begin to run until that disability is removed.
